Will my sad post-nursing boobs be this way forever?

| Title says it all. Just weaned my 14 month old, my first baby. My boobs are so sad! I used to be a 32C and am now an A, but not in a cute perky way. They look like empty bags. The limited amount of breast tissue is all at the bottom. Will this skin ever spring back at all? I might honestly consider a boob lift if this is the new normal. |

| My boobs stayed the same, so I think that there is hope. |

Did your boobs get sad and then spring back or were they normal even right after you weaned? -OP |

| I was just wondering the same! I’m still breastfeeding my 13 month old but thinking ahead. I honestly don’t remember how long it took after I weaned DD a few years ago. |

| Do not get a boob job. Mine were like that after nursing both of mine for 1-2 years each. Now that the youngest is 3.5 they have gone back. I would not have done anything like a boob job but now I’m so glad I just waited because it is not worth literally having surgery or putting implants into a sensitive place for something that just naturally comes back. |

| It all goes back. Just takes time. Have patience. |

I think initially it's a combination of nursing and postpartum weight loss. I would wait 6-12 months after you finish nursing your last child. Implants can be really toxic for your body and the procedure is expensive and can go very wrong. Definitely give yourself some time to adjust to your postpartum body before making any decisions.

| Another person chiming in to say that they will fill back up again, not exactly the way they were pre-pregnancy, but it's important to note that's because of the pregnancy, not nursing. It does take a long time, like more than a year after you wean. Get some good supportive bras and hang in there, mama! |

| 2 years later they are a cup bigger and a lot sadder. I'm going to get them lifted at some point. They get in the way of everything. |

| I got mine lifted. I’m so much happier. |

| I'm 18mo out from breastfeeding my last. Part of the problem is COVID-related depression weight gain... but I've seen my mom's boobs. These are never returning to a perky B. B maybe, but perky no. |

| Give it some time. They should recover a bit. |
